Thanks, Sascha, for the informative links.

Here's the situation on Monte Generoso – the light blue line is the boundary according to the Regione Lombardia and the red line according to swissBOUNDARIES3D:

I don't know why the boundaries differ so much and so irregulary (astonishingly the orthophotos from Swisstopo and from the Regione Lombardia are almost congruent). In any case, the boundary from swissBOUNDARIES3D runs through the boundary stones (e.g. [1]) while that from Regione Lombardia doesn't. Therefore i'll not ajust the boundary to that from the Regione Lombardia. Instead i'm going to move it to the boundary stones that i mapped or improved. This is likely not 100 % accurate (as i wrote, there are probably some boundary markers on the ground, which i haven't noticed), but still better than the current situation.

Hello Simon
No problem and thanks for the link!
I've found a data record with the administrative boundaries from 2020. [^1] But strangely enough, that boundary [^2] looks totally different from swissBOUNDARIES3D. I've connected the boundary stones, whose position I have improved using Swissimage, with a way [^3], which is pretty congruent with swissBOUNDARIES3D. Do you have an idea why there is such a big difference between the boundary by the Regione Lombardia and swissBOUNDARIES3D? This can't be because of different geodetic systems and i've also never heard that the Swiss-Italian boundary were disputed.
As Sascha has pointed out it isn't so simple with "no disputes" but I don't think this is the cause for the mismatch. There are at least some indications that it might be partially a projection issue, see https://cloud.sosm.ch/index.php/s/oJNE5P4dP3db7YG

Thanks for the information. :) (I thought I heard that once, but wasn't sure anymore.)
Politically I don't think it would be a good move to try this again right now.
Okay.
I can definitely ask OSM Italia for some help with the specific issue.
That would be very helpful.
Cheers

Hi Simon, hi everyone!
Unfortunately, the link on https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/ISTAT_Italian_Borders doesn't work anymore. I also can't improve the boundary with the help of the boundary stones, because some stones are missing in OSM. (I couldn't access them because they are in a fenced pasture.) Besides, the boundary from swissBOUNDARIES3D changes its direction more often than there are boundary stones. (Maybe there are some boundary markers on ground level which i haven't noticed.)
I've compared the Swiss border in OSM with swissBOUNDARIES3D: While there are only minor differences on the northern boundary from Geneva to the Lower Engadine (except from the Lake Constance, where the boundaries differ up to 1.3 km),
There are no boundaries in Lake Constance, there are some ways in OSM to close the polygons from a practical pov, but there are no international boundaries there that they could correspond to (the swisstopo boundaries are just as make-believe, simply slightly different dreaming).
there are larger differences (as i have seen up to 70 m) on the southern boundary (e.g. between Pas de Morgins and Mont Dolent). It doesn't seem that all these differences would come from simplification.
It would be very helpful if we could use the new swissBOUNDARIES3D. Who asked Swisstopo at the time if we could use this data?
I did.
